Gujarat Titans aim for IPL 2025 improvement with Gill

moneycontrol.com

The Gujarat Titans are preparing for the 2025 Indian Premier League (IPL) season after a disappointing showing last year. In 2024, the team, led by Shubman Gill, finished eighth in the ten-team tournament. However, the Titans are looking to bounce back. The team's strengths include strong batting ability. Shubman Gill and Sai Sudharsan had solid performances last season. They will be joined this year by star batsman Jos Buttler, which should boost the batting lineup. If these players excel, the Titans could score high runs. Additionally, the team has a strong mix of all-rounders like Rahul Tewatia, Washington Sundar, and Rashid Khan, which adds depth and flexibility. Gujarat's spin attack, led by Rashid Khan, is another highlight. This duo can create pressure during critical phases of the game, helping the Titans become a tougher opponent. On the downside, the Titans struggle with finishing games. They lack a reliable finisher, which can be crucial in T20 cricket. While Tewatia has performed under pressure, the team needs someone who can consistently deliver in tight situations. Shahrukh Khan and Sherfane Rutherford have potential but have yet to prove themselves as dependable options. Gujarat also has strong bowlers like Siraj and Rabada, who excel early in matches. However, they need a reliable death-over bowler. Past performances show concerns, particularly with Siraj's consistency and Rabada’s economy rate during critical final overs. Overall, the Titans hope to utilize their strengths and address weaknesses as they aim for success in IPL 2025.
